Society and animal welfare - Turkey

Turkey, March 31, 2012 - Tortured, anal torture, broken neck, burned and tormented. This may be the work of children, teens or adults, who amused themself by tormenting an abandoned dog. Five bottles of thinner was at the fire scene. An object has also been halted in the anus. This is very common in countries that have abandoned companion animals. The dog or cat will be attracted with food and then being tortured in this way. The animals are treated as vermin, as anyone can harm or torture as it pleases - the authorities do nothing. It's a shame not to Turkey starts neuter campaigns and introduce laws that would prevent more stray animals and suffering.

Another dog has suffered the same fate - which is not uncommon in Turkey.

The forests of Istanbul have become massive dumping grounds where the municipality of Istanbul drops thousands of abandoned animals.
